CMP Part 3B. General Land Use Plan <br /> Residential dwelling units are anticipated to be provided as 4 unit townhomes, apartments, <br /> condominiums, and senior housing structures, no higher than 30 feet in defined height. <br /> 10. Island Residential (1 unit per 5 acres) <br /> The Island residential is characterized by limited access,utilities,and municipal services for properties <br /> originally developed as seasonal cabins. The Land use category is intended to preserve this land use <br /> without encouraging additional subdivision. This area is envisioned for seasonal occupancy in single <br /> family detached structures. <br /> 11. Commercial/Office <br /> Commercial/ Office is the general land use describing 3 sub land use categories: Lakeshore <br /> Commercial, Navarre Commercial District, and Orono/ Long Lake Business District. Urban <br /> commercial development is limited to two areas which are provided with all the necessary urban <br /> services and facilities. <br /> LAKESHORE COMMERCIAL Lakeshore Commercial, restricted to lake access and lake user <br /> service businesses, including marinas, are appropriate for a lakeside community and require a <br /> lakeshore location. Special performance standards are necessary to assure protection of the lake <br /> environment. Parking, utilities, lake/ Highway access, and pedestrian circulation must be <br /> considered in siting new Lake Shore Commercial Uses. <br /> NAVARRE COMMERCIAL DISTRICT. See also Urban Medium High Density Residential/ <br /> Mixed Use. The major commercial center of Orono will continue to be Navarre. This area will <br /> provide opportunity for neighborhood retail and service businesses, plus professional offices. <br /> Accessory functions such as offices and living units or limited multi-family developments will be <br /> considered appropriate in or near the Navarre commercial area. The scale and type of retail uses <br /> in a pedestrian-friendly environment is the most important development parameter for the Navarre <br /> commercial area. The City will encourage redevelopment of individual commercial sites in <br /> Navarre to allow for an expanded range of neighborhood services and local small business <br /> opportunities. <br /> The Navarre Commercial District extends along either side of Shoreline Drive from the <br /> intersection of County Roads 15 and 19 westward to the Orono-Spring Park border,and along both <br /> sides of Shadywood Road from Lyric Avenue to Lydiard Avenue. The commercial uses along <br /> these intersecting corridors are typically only one tier deep, with virtually all commercial <br /> properties abutting either Shoreline Drive or Shadywood Road. Additionally, the commercial <br /> properties are not continuous, with residential properties scattered among them, making for a <br /> somewhat fragmented business district that is spread out over a mile in length from end to end. <br /> Along these two corridors the second tier of development is typically residential. <br /> Past City planning efforts for the Navarre area have identified a number of challenges to be <br /> addressed as Navarre redevelops in the years to come: <br /> 1. High traffic volumes and the existing traffic management infrastructure result in poor <br /> pedestrian accessibility.Pedestrians have limited options for crossing CR 15 or CR 19.The <br /> Park and Ride facility location and inflexibility of bus routes (partially due to the location <br /> and configuration of the P&R lot)requires that bus patrons cross CR 15 on at least one leg <br /> City of Orono Community Management Plan 2020-2040 Part 3B,Page 17 <br />
